For the second week in a row all eleven stars were safe from elimination, however in the third show next week, the first star and their dancing partner will leave the show.

But it wasn't the dancers that stole the viewer's attention, It was Hughie's OTT tan.

Despite protestations from the production team there was no stopping Hughie lathering on the false tan. An insider revealed: "As hard as we tried Hughie had a solid grasp on his bronzer and there was no releasing it". Hughie has told colleagues "you can’t have enough tan".

The evening would not have been complete without a dance from the male celebrity dancers. But it wasn’t their performance to Daft Punk’s- Get Lucky that set tongues wagging.
